About the Item

19th Century Period French, Empire Painted Commode The solid wood body is painted in a textured, aged, distressed patina showing some of the gesso-painted base and original wood beneath. The piece has some period ormolu intact, featuring bronze female busts above the columns, a classic motif inspired by the Napoleonic return from the Egyptian Campaign. The sturdy piece makes for a classic silhouette of the period. Original Keys are present, drawers open and close easily, and are ready for your choice of hardware pulls if desired.
